Orozar Farming at SF is a very profitable way of making some fast cash in an otherwise slow economy of Guildwars. I usually play as a Monk or a Necro(SS or MM) but recently I started using my ranger(R/Mo) for those 5 man runs. The build I use is a slight modification of the Barrage build used in FoW Groups. Here is the build.

11 - Expertise
12 - Marksmanship
10 - Beast Mastery
8 - Smiting Prayers
Rest - Wliderness Survival(Do i need this?? I have it for troll ungent for those emergency situation)

I use a 15% enchant Ascalon Bow with a 18% enchant grip and Zealouse Bow String(Key to this build)

Here are the 8 skills I use

1 - Barrage(elite)
2 - Judges Insight
3 - Savage shot
4 - Symbiosis (Key skill for Gear Holder with 5+enchantments gives him a lot of health and Dwaynas kiss becomes a good heal skill)
5 - Favourable winds(For barrage and Bone Fiends)
6 - Dodge
7 - Troll Ungent
8 - Rebirth

I take up the spot of a SS or a Nuker in the group. Rest of the group stays the same. That is 1 healer, 1 bonder, 1 MM and 1 SoJ Gear Holder.

I am sure this build could be better. Comments are welcome.

I think at 7 Smiting prayers, you have 14 sec of JI; the next break point is at 9 Smiting prayers which gives you 15 sec of JI (need to double check on this). So you can probably drop Smiting prayers to 7.

Also, try to get expertise to 13 since that's the break point for 5 mana skills to drop to 2 mana, and you are spamming barrage.

I would probably drop troll ungent as well since your monk should heal you. Dodge is also not a good idea since you are spamming barrage most of the time and dodge ends as soon as you attack. I would replace with Whilring Defense or throw dirt.

Since you have 10 BM, I would probably add Tiger Fury in there. Although it doesn't help you all that much if you are spamming barrage IMO. I just think Tiger Fury kinda breaks the rhythm of your shot... but that's just what I think. Some people find it helpful.
